विखंडन प्रक्रियांमध्ये निर्माण होणाऱ्या ऊर्जेचे प्रमाण खालीलपैकी कोणत्या बाबीवर/बाबींवर अवलंबून असते ? In fission processes, the amount of energy released depends on which of the following factor/s ?

(a)अभिक्रिया कारकाचे वस्तुमान / The mass of the reactant

(b)उत्पाद्याचे वस्तुमान / The mass of the product

(c)अभिक्रियाकारक आणि उत्पाद्याचे वस्तुमान / The mass of the reactant and product

(d)विखंडनांच्या वेळी कमी झालेले वस्तुमान / The loss in mass during fission

1)फक्त (a) आणि (c) / Only (a) and (c)
2)फक्त (b) / Only (b)
3)फक्त (d) / Only (d)
4)फक्त (a) आणि (d) / Only (a) and (d)✓ Correct

In nuclear fission processes, the energy released is directly proportional to the mass defect (loss in mass during fission, based on Einstein's E=mc^2), which is derived from the difference between reactant and product masses.
